UFO Challenge 2023Finish those quilt projects hidden in your sewing room!!!February 2023 - July 2023
Here are the rules. They’re very simple: Finish as many Modern Quilty UFOs (for example; quilt tops, wall hangings, bags, jackets, pillows) as you can between February 1, 2023 - June 30, 2023. Post your finished UFO on Instagram with the hashtag #stlmqgufo2023 and bring it to a meeting for Show & Share. For every UFO you complete, your name will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the completion of this challenge. UFOs need to be completed: if it's a quilt/wall hanging - quilted and bound, if it's a jacket or bag - wearable in public and if if it's a pillow- it needs to be stuffed! Three winners will be picked at the July meeting! Click here for UFO TIPS AND TRICKS.docx |
